Angry Birds
The pig-busting game that started a beloved franchise
Angry Birds is a puzzle game where you get to play as one of the brightly colored birds, each with its own attitude.
Each level brings a new challenge, and each challenge gets harder for the bird of your choice. Your mission as a bird is to defeat a group of green pigs. The pigs have decided to steal all of the eggs that the birds have. This will come into play later in the game as you will use some of the eggs to try to defeat the pigs.
When you play each level, you think that the birds are military fighters with all of the clothes and the gear that they have. There are some birds that have paint on their faces and some that have military hats. The game seems to go on forever as there are about 120 levels of play. You would think that it would take hours to complete the game, but the first few levels go by fairly quickly as you can easily take down the pigs.
In each level, you will use either a mouse or special keys on the keyboard to control the angle of which you launch your ammunition to defeat the pigs. If you don't get the angle right, then you won't hit the pigs, and they can begin to defeat you. A fun aspect of the game is that you are launching birds to hit the pigs. It's best to try to hit as many pigs as possible with only one bird so that it's easier to defeat the enemy as fast as you can. This is also how you'll get through the dozens of levels of game play.
